Advice for hiring bikes in Benidorm

Depending on why you want to hire a bike, you should consider certain matters. However, the conditions companies dedicated to this business should fulfil and the aspects you should look out for won’t vary much. As such, before hiring a bike in Benidorm, you need to consider the series of recommendations detailed below. Grab a pen and paper, and take note!

Where can I hire a bike?

Browse the internet and discover which company offering bike hire in Benidorm has the best reviews. Ensure it complies with all legal standards and has a licence to develop this business. By doing so, and if you have any problems, it will be easy to make a claim and take any appropriate steps.

In this city you will find different options where you can hire bikes,
such as independent hire companies and
public bicycle services. Our best piece of advice would be to make your decision
based on the use you will be making of your bike. If you want to go on different
rides around the city use an independent company. Why? Because you can enjoy
the wonderful bike rides they have programmed, as well as bike hire.

On the other hand, if you simply want to use a bike as a form of transport to get from A to B in the city, we advise you hire one using the public service, ensuring you won’t have any issues.

Are there specific bikes for different uses?

As stated previously, it’s important you know what you’ll be using your bike for. Consequently, you can be sure you’ll be offered what you need so you won’t have to worry about any issues or misunderstandings that can arise. Don’t you think?

For children or adults, city or mountain, traditional or electric. Make sure they have available what you have in mind. Furthermore, check if you can book a bike and under what terms and conditions.

Make sure rates are clear

The payment method (in cash or by card), deposits and even if there is a
penalty for late return. Some companies give you the option of including theft insurance that you must
pay separately, of course. Important: hold
onto your receipt after paying for your rental! It will serve as a contract
in the event there are any problems.

If the company is professional, it will request an ID document or passport to identify the person taking the bike. If they don’t, that should raise your suspicions. In the case of minors under 18 years old, an authorisation document must be signed by an adult accompanying them.
